Deadmaus’ arpeggiated progression is great, but your patch and the way you modulate it gives the tune urgency and takes me on a journey. Gets better every time I listen. ❤️
Just lovely. Is it me or was this tracked thru an old Neve? I track most of my synths thru an old pair and feel like I recognize that same crusty midrange saturation here. In any case, sweet sequences and I appreciate the sensitive touch!
Thanks for stopping by... I'm quite a fan of your plugins, and have lusted after some of your hardware for years:) This does have a gritty quality, but not because of a Neve... it's just the right side of a little bit dirty.

Damn you. I just bought 10 (yes 10) pieces of musical equipment in 2 weeks and had successfully convinced myself that should be enough for restarting making music. I was eyeing the 2600 as well but decided thatI have really enough gear now and should start rtfm the existing pieces. But now after listening to this I need this one as well.That is just such an amazing sound. So instead of a groove box, 1 synth and a small keyboard I am now equipped with 2 tables full of hardware synths I really have no clue yet how to use. But I am happy...
Oh also, I highly recommend you take notes on programming and patches using Microsoft Onenote. Put all the digital instruction manuals in there too. It's a great app that can refresh your memory quick if you forget how to do something.
Excellent. I've one arriving tomorrow. I'm an old school piano, Rhodes, Hammond, guitar player and recording engineering thingie - but recently the synth thing has hit me as a chance to reinvigorate my creativity. It looks a ton of fun too...
The 2600 is an amazing audio work surface. It’s more about playing the synth than playing the keyboard. It was built for Arps, bass and lead and then the cooler stuff for patch kids.
yep that satisfies the craving. on the shopping list since last year but after hearing it today...its on the top of the list . The sound is beautiful. Thank you.
Just over a year ago and being a bedroom guitarist for many years I stumbled upon one of your synth reviews and while not starting me on my synth interest it definitely accelerated me down the rabbit hole of which I happily fell, so now having a better understanding of how subtractive synth work it makes watching this so much more enjoyable and impressive. Knowing now how the sound is being produced ie filter envelopes cut off resonance lfos etc make it even more enjoyable .. long may you continue.. 👏👍
In addition to being a great video, what I also appreciate is your placement of the ads. This is probably the most the least interruptive ads experience I have seen on a video. It's much appreciated.
I ALWAYS enjoy your videos. I appreciate your straight forwardness, light heartedness, and still refer back to all your video tutorials on newer synths I have purchased in recent years. Thank you for ALL you do! (This is QUITE nice!!)
Starsky, absolute belter of a 2600 demo. Loved it. Like others, your videos help us at SOUND7 inform much of our synth purchases. These clones are nailing it. Keep going!
I even sometimes write stuff with softsynths then fire the MIDi to hardware to record all the sweet tweaking loveliness :) just fine exactly that with my Prophet 600 using Repro5 at first. The track I’ll feature in my upcoming Prophet 609 vid was created like that.
You're talking about performing. That's the thing... you CAN do that. You can even do it on your soft synths in Ableton if you map their functionality to controllers and record the automation. Just keep performing the song and then put together the best bits.
Nice demo. BTW, can you use different colours for the patch cables? Or show more of the lower part of the picture? That makes it easier to patch the sound.
Yeah... I realised they weren’t visible after recording. It’s all pretty basic tbh. Patching mainly different VCO shapes... but point taken. I didn’t photo these either which is annoying as I could’ve posted the images.
Did I detect the Nosedive midsection in Part 1 there? Literally my favorite chord progression. 👍 I just purchased the Behringer 2600 Gray Meanie yesterday --- it's my first hardware synth ever, after working with software synths for years. I'm so excited to explore the sonic opportunities!
Brilliant demo', well done.. I am really happy you got this one. The sounds that you are making, brings back a lot of memories to me... for certain reasons. Have a great week, stay safe out there. Cheers.
Hell yeah!!!! I've been looking so forward to this vid!! Sounds incredible, the beginning could have been on an Orbital album or something!! Amazing, thanks for posting!!
The 4012 filter "does it" for me! I have mine patched into my 'small sound system' (being a former FOH engineer who owned a sound company), using a pair of 'Renkus-Heinz' 12" two way 300W (each) powered speakers bi-amped with two subs - EV design "Thiele" TL-606 subs w/ EV-15L speakers. ( and yes - I have no neighbors close by me either.) I have wanted to get an ARP 2600 since first hearing this fantastic synth when it first came out. Now, I have it - with the B2600 - and have "paired" it with the Pittsburgh Modular SV-1b. (Talk about "slammin' low end")! Love it! Thank you for your videos! Much appreciated!
That gritty and smooth Juice from the osc en filtrer are lovely, i love odyssey hardware replica too and the software version from arturia too, but this 2600 is really another beast, for making progressive filtered sequence on trance music it's a must have.
Had mine for about two weeks now and still scratching on the surface, but love it so far ... it can produce some monster sounds as heard in this exquisite demo.
If you send two MIDI notes you can patch the upper note to wherever you like with the patch point on the left. I think it’s called upper or something like that. The synth works it out.
@@StarskyCarr so sorry to bother again but i can’t get to recreate a similar duo patch. could you please direct or link me to your patreon walkthrough? also very intrigued where are you sending this midi notes from and how? (ableton?) pardon my ignorance again
Which DAW do you like to use? I am new to the game and like the ideal of using Midi files for the source. Is there any way to load midi files directly to a hardware sequencer like a Beatstep, Keystep or Korg 64? I am assuming that your are running from the DAW into the 2600 using USB. Thanks for answering a Newbie question.
Hi, I use Logic. You can't load MIDI files direct to a hardware sequencer, but you can play them in using a free DAW. There are lots of free or very cheap ones available, If you're on Mac Garageband is free and a good way to start. I think Harrison Mixbus is very cheap or sometimes free. And there will be lots of others. Here I'm using a single MIDI file in Logic (I've adapted the original so it can play duo phonic on the 2600.. ie reduced it to 2 notes etc) I think it was played via MIDI DIN, but its the same as USB in all respects.
@@StarskyCarr Thanks for the prompt response. Love your channel. So many great pieces of hardware and not enough time or money - LOL. It is about making great sounds for me and having fun while I do it. Keep up the great work.
They're from a MIDI pack he released years ago. I think there was around 50 MIDI patterns all of which have that Deadmau5 feel .. very cool for trying out tones. I just picked a couple that worked well here and changed them to sound good in duo phonic mode on the synth.
@StarskyCarr , you just sold me a 2600. Was a toss up between this and the Poly D, I think you've demonstrated wonderfully the expansive capabilities that far exceed that of the Poly D. Thank you so much! This vid is some fantastic work mate! Perhaps one question if I may - the Grey Meanie is said to have an actual real spring reverb - you think I should wait or does this one do the job?
Lovely sounds. Thank you. I'm in the sad position of having had this synth, along with the Bodyssey, Neutron, Crave, Deepmind 12 and TD-3 for a couple of months ( thank you pension), but they are sitting in their boxes until some work is finished in the house so I can have somewhere to set them up. I keep getting one or two of them out every so-often to have a play, but the wife and kids moan about me taking up room. I can't wait to get the 2600, neutron, TD-3 and crave all talking to each other with CV/Gate. That is going to be HUGE! Maybe you could do something along those lines. That would help ease my suffering 🙏.
Don't ask! Still not there yet, but I'm hoping to have something sorted by the summer. I might even put up a video when it's done 😮 I will say that, since my original post, i have added the 2600, RD-6, Wasp, euphoria UMC 1820 and ADA 8200, and am desperately trying not to buy an RD-9. I also like the look of the Edge (DFAB?), But might wait for the almost inevitable "Bubharmonicom". I used to have an MC202 TR 606 and TR626 which I am sad not to have anymore, but I hear that Behringer are aiming to do a 202 clone which I must have for reasons. Now I have the Wasp Deluxe, I could get rid of the binbag containing all the bits to my old EDP Wasp, but I still might get around to fixing it. Maybe get a Kiwisix for my old Polysix too. God, writing this down I think the wife may actually do me in 😀
Really curious as to how you can get the separate VCOs to play different parts of the midi file like in the first sequence! if I’m sending midi to the 2600 is there some way you can send only certain parts to each VCO? Maybe I’m confused and it’s happening some other way, sounds amazing anyway!
I'm trying to understand, if you play two notes in Duo mode, how you specify *which* note gets routed to the secondary CV. Is it the lower note? The later note? Can you play on two different channels to indicate which note is which?
There is a separate CV out for the upper note. The synth recognises which is the highest and you patch it to whatever VCO(s) you like. All on a single midi channel, just like standard duo mode… only difference here is you choose which oscillator plays the higher note.
I own one, I do not have the proof that the patch points connected are making some of the presentaion, what outside modulation was used or post processing to produce the richness you are advertising? I have made these demonstrated and had a barely similar response.
Hi, this is just the 2600. I think I put some eventide FX in a couple of places on the final recording - if so it will be labelled on the video where it was used. I have 2 tracks of MIDI going to the same MIDI channel from Logic sequencing it. But no other modulation. On my Patreon I have walkthroughs of the patches demoing exactly what's going on.
Great!!! On the first patch which is duophonic, how did you get one "voice to have two osc and play one melody - while the third osc plays a very different melody but also being triggered as if independent from the envelope and not rereiggering the other osc in 16th?
@@StarskyCarr thanks! Do you need any external cv keyboard or source in order to get the duo mode working - or is it simpler? I flick the switch to "duo on" but it doesn't let me play two different notes. Using a midi kb to control the 2600
@@bateimidrashnetwork you need to patch the top note to one of the oscillators CV in (or put it through the must to assign to 2 oscillators).. simplest way is to patch to a single one to start.
@@StarskyCarr Sorry but i don't quite understand what you mean. Patching within the B2600 itself? Or do you mean i have to use some kind of external cv device/keyboard/sequencer? How do i "patch the top note to one of the oscillators CV in" ? Can you show for where to where? Thanks!
I’m sending MIDI from Logic. It’s a single midi file with a max 2 notes at any one time. The 2600 picks out the top note that you can patch to wherever - hence the dual melody lines you hear on some of these.
Deadmaus’ arpeggiated progression is great, but your patch and the way you modulate it gives the tune urgency and takes me on a journey. Gets better every time I listen. ❤️

The 2600 splits the incoming MIDI internally and has a separate output for the high note.
I have the ODDY and I concur. It is not the original. Behringer has its own sound, and it is different, but it sounds great.
Ya, the original sounds darker and has a bit more detail in the high end resonance (to my ears at least)
Can you maybe explain the first a little more in a future video, or comment? That first patch brought tears of joy via my ears.

I own one, I do not have the proof that the patch points connected are making some of the presentaion, what outside modulation was used or post processing to produce the richness you are advertising? I have made these demonstrated and had a barely similar response.
Hi, this is just the 2600. I think I put some eventide FX in a couple of places on the final recording - if so it will be labelled on the video where it was used. I have 2 tracks of MIDI going to the same MIDI channel from Logic sequencing it. But no other modulation. On my Patreon I have walkthroughs of the patches demoing exactly what's going on.
stunning as always brother
Lovely lovely sounds and melodies.
Great!!! On the first patch which is duophonic, how did you get one "voice to have two osc and play one melody - while the third osc plays a very different melody but also being triggered as if independent from the envelope and not rereiggering the other osc in 16th?
Deft use of the envelopes. :)
@@StarskyCarr thanks!
Do you need any external cv keyboard or source in order to get the duo mode working - or is it simpler? I flick the switch to "duo on" but it doesn't let me play two different notes. Using a midi kb to control the 2600
@@bateimidrashnetwork you need to patch the top note to one of the oscillators CV in (or put it through the must to assign to 2 oscillators).. simplest way is to patch to a single one to start.
@@StarskyCarr Sorry but i don't quite understand what you mean. Patching within the B2600 itself? Or do you mean i have to use some kind of external cv device/keyboard/sequencer? How do i "patch the top note to one of the oscillators CV in" ? Can you show for where to where? Thanks!
@@tzachikeinan3708 I've a full walkthrough on my Patreon which should help you.
Hi , stupid question , which device is sending the sequences and in which format?
I’m sending MIDI from Logic. It’s a single midi file with a max 2 notes at any one time. The 2600 picks out the top note that you can patch to wherever - hence the dual melody lines you hear on some of these.
You're gonna make me buy something I shouldn't be buying right now, lol.
That thing sounds thick and juicy, like a synth steak.
Medium rare
wow, just wow!
Awesome demo! Sounds incredible
